_Wyf_. Make fyares, bid them make ready wholesom brothes,
Make warme the bedd, and see the sheetes well ayred.
Att length then have I fownd thee?
_Ashb_. But what's shee
That's in thy fellow-shippe?
_Mir_. My fellowe sharer
In all misfortunes; and for many yeares
So deere to mee, I canot tast a blessednes
Of which shee's not partaker.
_Wyfe_. For thy sake
Shee shall bee myne too, and (in her) I'l thinke
The powers above have for my single losse
Given mee at lengthe a duble recompense.
_Scrib_. For which hee that protects all inocence
Will in good tyme reward you.
_Wyfe_. Praye, in, in;
This could is prejuditiall to your Healthes.
I'l count you boathe my twinnes.
[_Ext. Wife, Palestra, and Scribonia_.
_Ashb_. Strange alteration!
Skoldinge is turn'd to pittye, spleen and mallyce
To mercye and compassion.
_Fisher_. But your promisse
Tutchinge my budgett?
_Ashb. Godfreye_, beare it in
And lodge it safe; there's no tyme for that;
We'll talke of it herafter.
_Godf_. Fellow _Gripus_, I am made for this tyme porter.
